The players reportedly came forward to the Nebraska athletic department at the end of last season through an anonymous survey in which “a vast majority” of players alleged they had been verbally abused and harassed by Revelle.

That prompted a meeting with athletic director Bill Moos, who was reportedly told a majority of players sought psychological counseling over Revelle’s coaching and her treatment led to a number of transfers. One member of the team reportedly told Moos she had experienced suicidal thoughts because of the team’s climate.

That led to Revelle’s paid leave, but that’s over now, and players are reportedly considering a boycott of the team’s first practice this year.

In addition to the potential boycott, players detailed with the Post what playing for Revelle was like:

Players said Revelle asked them to report to her on each other’s love lives and texted players at all hours of the day and night. In one instance, a player said Revelle texted her nearly 100 times over the course of one afternoon.

One recent former player said she suffered an injury during a game, and while lying in bed that night crying in pain, she received harassing text messages from Revelle questioning her injury. According to several players, investigators were told of another former player who was bullied into playing through a thumb injury for much of a season only to be examined by a family doctor after the season, who told her that she should have been in a cast for a month. Her family covered the medical bills out of pocket. Investigators also were told of a player who was in a serious car accident and said she was rushed straight to an away game without receiving a concussion test and later suffered headaches and post-concussion symptoms.

Obviously, all of that adds up to what sounds like a dangerous situation in Nebraska, but it’s also not so rare in college athletics these days, especially in women’s athletics.
